Hugo Duro scored twice in the first half and Javi Guerra added a goal to help Valencia defeat Atletico Madrid 3-0 at home on Saturday, handing the visitors their first La Liga loss of the year. The Atletico Madrid team was plagued by injury and lacked pace as a result of the suspension of their match against Sevilla last month before to the international break. Valencia, who had suffered two straight defeats, outperformed them.
Atletico goalkeeper Jan Oblak remarked, "Today we lacked everything - energy, mentality, I don't know. "Valencia arrived considerably better than we did. Words are irrelevant. We must significantly improve in the upcoming games. Five minutes into the game, Duro gave Valencia the lead with a shot from a tight angle on the left side. He then scored again in the 34th minute following a quick break to make it 2-0.
